The Bass That Got Away

I went night fishing with Steve to pre-fish for the upcoming club tournament.    For the second straight time on Clear Lake I had a 5+ lb fish break away right at the boat.   Had we been fishing the tournament it would have been in the net, but the time to try and grab the fish without the net gave it the change to break away.   I caught 3 Largemouth Bass in the 2 lb range on jigs and 2 on texas rigs in the 1-2lb range.   The one that broke away was caught on a drop shot.   The pre-fish wasn’t successful enough to win a tournament but it was a good experience.    No trophy, no picture.
